[Resolved] I dont want to create blogs translated pages
This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: You are updating your blog daily without translating the posts, but WPML is automatically creating translated pages for these posts, causing the same content to appear in all languages. Solution: If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend changing the translation settings for your posts. Go to WPML-> Settings-> Post Type Translation section, and set the posts to be "Translatable - Only show translated item". After making this change, create a new test page or post and do not translate it to verify if the issue is resolved.
Please note that this solution might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case. We highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the problem persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum for further assistance.

Background of the issue:
I am updating daily new blog post, but I am not translating them. I want to prevent WPML from creating translated pages for my blog posts.
Symptoms:
The same blog post content is showing in all languages.
Questions:
Is there anyway WPML can prevent creating blog URLs in other languages?
Can WPML redirect other language URLs to the same English blog post?
While you wait for my colleague to take over the ticket, let me try to help you with the issue quickly.
1) You can disable automatic translation on your website, so it does not get translated automatically, but only the content you send for translation via WPML > Translation Management.
2) You can set the post to be not translatable from WPML > Settings > Post types translation settings.
3) It can show EN content in another language if you set the post to be Translatable but fallback to the default language from the same settings as above. But if you have an automatic translation, then they will be translated, so not sure if this is useful for you.
No you don't get my point, i am asking about posts auto generated with urls, which is i don't want, example
I post this article hidden link
But i want plugin don't make other language post automatically with language urls like: hidden link hidden link hidden link
when ever i do new post, all language posts auto generated with language code urls, this disturb my SEO...
when user check main post, someone try to change language it must automatically show same English content with English URL, issue is url, plugin making all language urls with same content, which is really bad for me.
